Thank you for your replies and advice. I just wanted to be sure as I thought it was only R stamp items that had this problem so maybe I was wrong about the Q stamp. Oh my goodness you purchased 3! Were they all R stamp? What did H do for you? I'm so sorry to hear [emoji17]

Yes all 3 were R stamped!! H allowed all returns without any problems!! They were so nice and accommodating.....I did end up getting a scarf as a gift which was really nice as well.

It IS funny, unless some poor buyer who doesn't know about this issue buys the bag, thinking it will smell like, you know, cilantro or lavender. Argh! It's just wrong to sell a skunk bag, especially when Hermes would replace the bag for the current owner. Jeez.

Looks like its in a few peoples 'carts' too... Still can't believe a reseller would list a smelly bag...

Anyway back to topic before we get in trouble!

Bags gone...hoping they returned it to the owner/consigner and did not sell it to an unsuspecting buyer 😒 who isn't aware of the w33d and skunk smells!

Hi :wave:

Do any of you know if the skunk smell is an issue for ALL the black togo B's produced in 2014?

I'm looking at a B in black Togo from 2014, so R stamped. I have been reading all i can about the Skunk issue during this manufacturing period.
I've asked the seller about any smells and she has not had any problems, but we live in a colder climate so perhaps it hasn't been an issue yet.

Thanks in advance
